How to Read Math Textbooks

Sponsored link: Memory Dump Analysis Services

Debugging Experts Magazine Online

If you are interested in mathematical ideas or want to learn serious math you can skip proofs when reading various math textbooks. My speed of math book processing greatly increased after I started to skip proofs of lemmas and theorems. The slow progress through proofs inhibited my reading advance in the past. Even professional mathematicians confess after a few beers how slow they are as Thomas Garrity mentioned in the preface to his book All the Mathematics You Missed. I found that it is more important is to read several books on the same subject to see different explanations and more examples than to concentrate on a one book. By skipping proofs I can now read 2-3 more books in the same amount of time.
